Pennsylvania And Pornography: Cdt V. Pappert Offers A New Approach To Criminal Liability, 23 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 411 (2005), John Spence

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law

The rapid expansion of information technology in the past few years has left states and the Federal government struggling desperately to keep up and many of the laws attempting to regulate the Internet and information technology show a lack of understanding how the affected technology actually works and could possibly the growth and distribution of new ideas and inventions even incapacitate the Internet. One area in particular that has been the subject of widespread concern and attention is online pornography, a business that few people only realize just how big it truly is. This article focuses on the recent District …

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law

As with most innovations that have world-altering capabilities, the Internet is not without its very own dark side. This Internet's ugly side represented by are the thousands of Web sites devoted to the procurement and dissemination of pornographic material. Although, undoubtedly, in a free society, people are entitled to have access to such material if they so desire it is also generally accepted there is not only a great need, but an uncompromisable duty to protect minors from, and prevent access to, this potentially harmful imagery. This Comment discusses the several recent attempts made by Congress to regulate the accessibility …

The Concept Of "Harm" In Computer-Generated Images Of Child Pornography, 22 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 717 (2004), Jisuk Woo

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law

There has been a lot of controversy about the harm caused by computer-generated child pornography. This article examines the new ways in which technological development has created new concerns about child pornography especially in the context of challenging the concept of “harm” in the existing child pornography law. The author presents and discusses the existing child pornography laws and jurisprudence as well as the relevant arguments raised against it most of which are based on the “harm” caused by child pornography. This concept of “harm” and the different ways it is conceived and understood is analyzed and empirical evidence supporting …

The Truth About The Truth In Domain Names Act: Why This Recently Enacted Law Is Unconstitutional, 23 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 141 (2004), Michael Honig

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law

In April 2003 the Prosecutorial Remedies and other Tools to End the Exploitation of Children Today Act of 2003 (PROTECT Act) was enacted with the goal to protect children from abduction and abuse and achieve a more aggressive pursuit of the individuals committing crimes against the children. Although the AMBER Alert system is the most known portion of the legislation other provisions including the Truth in Domain Names Act (TDNA) making the use of a misleading Internet domain name to deceive a person to view pornography a criminal offense were also included. This comment first discusses the case of John …

Congress And The Courts Battle Over The First Amendment: Can The Law Really Protect Children From Pornography On The Internet?, 21 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 141 (2003), Mitchell P. Goldstein

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law

Litigation and court action have provided little in the way of providing solutions to anyone dealing with inappropriate content on the Internet. In Miller v. California, 413 U.S. 15 (1973). The court refused to establish a national standard and instead relied on community standards. Because the Internet has no geographic limitations, one cannot determine community standards because the Internet is so far reaching. Goldstein discusses in detail these Congressional enactments: Communications Decency Act of 1996, the Child Online Protection Act, and the Child Pornography Prevention Act of 1996, finding that none of them give children protection from pornography. The challenge …

Imagine that you are a married woman who wants to have a genetically related child with your husband.

Five embryos are implanted in your uterus and five are frozen and kept by the fertility clinic for your later use. You successfully conceive and give birth to twins. You notice that the children you give birth to are of a different race than …

The Best Of Both Worlds: Financing Software Filters For The Classroom And Avoiding First Amendment Liability, 16 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 659 (1998), Peter G. Drever Iii

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law

As the Internet expands, educational institutions have become interested in the medium for the purpose of expanding learning opportunities. Information that may be objectionable to some members of the community, however, would then be available to children in schools with Internet access. Attempts to regulate the content of the Internet have yet to pass a First Amendment challenge. Concern over what children will be exposed to when the Internet is introduced in the classroom is currently being addressed by educators and legislators alike. The Communications Decency Act was the first to attempt to address the issue of Internet access in …

The Constitutionality Of Congressional Efforts To Ban Computer-Generated Child Pornography: A First Amendment Assessment Of S. 1237, 14 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 483 (1996), Ronald W. Adelman

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law

This article addressed the constitutionality of the Child Pornography Prevention Act of 1995 (Hatch Bill) in regard to computer-generated child pornography. The Bill outlaws a visual depiction that is or appears to be of a minor engaging in sexually explicit conduct. The author claims the comments of David B. Johnson and John C. Scheller regarding the constitutionality of the Bill are analytically flawed because they focus on dicta from New York v. Ferber and Osborne v. Ohio. The author then engages in his own assessment of the Bill using a First Amendment approach and suggests what findings Congress should make …
